If he was talking about Marius I swear to goddddd like I don't know shit about Marius but I swear to GODDDDDDDDDDDDDD

*Apologies for the low-ish mic audio, I completely redid the setup and the good news is that it sounds much better but the bad news I literally did everything but readjust the volume levels. I boosted the volume during pauses etc but there's nothing I can do for the comments during the episode. You can still hear me most of the time, thankfully.

Soooo pleased you're getting excited for Devil's Minion now ehehe. (If I recall correctly you haven't read the books and don't know much about it? 🤔) And I love how much you love Armand 🥰 He does deserve to get his ass kicked in this episode :') Lestat saying he has "uwu Japanime eyes" look me the fuck OUT 😭 Srsly tho I need Armand and Daniel to [redacted] *coughs* I mean kiss :') more than I need a lot of things these days. And yeah!! What happened after the screen cut on that sidewalk 😭 I need to KNOW! Also did you notice Armand's eyes vibrating after he left the theater and right before Daniel followed him out? 🥺 I wonder if he was just angry... or if he compelled Daniel to follow him...? 😩😭

Emma

Armand does have ”uwu japanime eyes” 😂 i never would’ve thought to put it like that but it fits perfectly

Emma

I need Armand and Daniel together like I need air to breath! Also I like Gabriella in the books but kinda hate her here, which is funny because I like most of the show characters more than I like the book ones (Louis being the prime example, I can’t stand book Louis, he's so annoying).

Devil's minion is finally kicking off after two seasons of references, innuendo, and ambiguous looks and I'm so happy about it. I had the same reaction you did to the IWTV violin theme suddenly playing towards the end. It hit really hard after a season of rock music. Whoever decided to put Lestat in pigtails in this episode deserves a raise. That and the shower of blood went way harder than I was prepared for.

Still absolutely losing my mind at the Armand bus scene when you consider this is retold from Lestat’s perspective, I mean are you kidding me 😭 He was probably like “the gremlin couldn’t stop staring at my ~generous endowment~ while I showered sexily and he stuttered through his sad little apology note ☺️” D I V A

Great reaction as always! I'm so so excited about Devil's Minion, I've been waiting for 84 years... And, yeah, sadly, it's 7 episodes, not 8 T___T

CATEGORY 5 DEVIL’S MINION EVENT. siri play depeche mode i feel you. loud enough to kill. ok perhaps inconsequential but given that italo calvino’s been mentioned twice now, fareed is reading The Castle of Crossed Destinies in the opening section. i only noticed because my EN copy of invisible cities (mentioned in ep3) looks the same lol. lestat’s blood script mesh top is vintage jean paul gaultier, but more importantly it looks like claudia’s journal entry written in lestat’s blood. fantastic costuming choice. "burn my ass up, you're gay" well don't say it like that. "oh, thank you fareed :)" i actually love that lestat seems to genuinely like fareed. what a funny detail. the same lestat who tortured a tenor for singing some flat notes entertaining his band members’ coke fueled song ideas…… cute. (also they posted the page on insta and the drawing is the bus running over armand lmfao) "i hurt you the worst out of anyone," "also, you're in danger and might die," "also i'm in love with you." thank you my beautiful princess with a disorder but we might want to work on your social skills next. although given that he had a little script he wrote for his apologies and seems to categorically refuse to deviate from it, the next step might be the autism assessment. and yeah it makes sense for armand to believe that it’s daniel he’s done the most harm to, he thinks being turned is a curse. what he did to claudia was a mercy by comparison. ok big boss song is extremely funny but “he asked me was it good?” is just… armand’s always reverting to his “amadeo had a skill” thing and finding his value in the sexual favours he can provide…. he and lestat really are more similar than they’ll admit. speaking of which, gabriella telling lestat "i love you" in this context… thinking about claudia’s "It was when he had me pinned, and he'd tell me he loved me. Before, during, and after. That fucked me up." but anyway it was love! it was love!! armand was distracted during the interview because of love!! i mean yeah we could see how he was looking at daniel in S1&2 but still. very cool acting choice on assad’s part too that his conversation with daniel is the loosest and most animated we’ve seen armand behave so far. talking with his hands, being pissy, arguing, he actually lets himself have a personality around daniel, unlike around louis/lestat. Dante's Hell mentioned again! i was not reaching as hard as i thought last week. this and calvino, i wonder where they’re going with it. "What now, Daddy Lou?" …and you're still Louis the pimp, paying a whore to sit in a room and talk with you. yes the S1 soundtrack!! and quoting “it is difficult to explain how his words disarmed me” in this context is interesting because as much as it was framed as a wedding, lestat was also very much a predator to louis. “a similar situation” huh. well, given what S1E5 and S2E5 gave us, i am extremely worried about next week and the second half of the season in general.

the armand and daniel of it all is giving me so much life and is really getting me through these episodes like i crave more aha - given the love that armand feels for daniel he would truly believe that he has caused him the most harm out of everyone in his life, he sees vampirism as a curse so he would feel shame about burdening daniel with that and thats why he did what he did to nicki and claudia because he sees that as ‘freeing’ them from the burden of vampirism before they destroy themselves also the amount of reactors who have no concept of devils minion hearing the line about the love not being louis and literally naming every single person but daniel just make me laugh like guys you all have a big storm coming! feel like im in the minority of people who really did not enjoy lestats song about armand, like the ‘ragdoll for sale’ line just really rubs me the wrong way considering lestat himself has also gone through that so i really just did not enjoy that as a writing choice (not looking forward to potentially witnessing marius in this season, i need to mentally prepare myself)

Emma

Also I forgot to say but this Regina thing is so much worse than the ghost Claudia…

I mean I think it’s asking a lot of Lestat to be sensitive to Armand’s feelings after everything Armand has done, including not caring himself about what Magnus did to Lestat in the past, which Armand even mentions himself in his “apology” although he puts it in nicer words. But the reality is that Armand knew exactly what had happened to Lestat and what did he do? Kidnap Nicky, torture and traumatize him and put Lestat through emotional turmoil, all so Armand could be with Lestat himself. So yeah. Is it completely morally correct Lestat mentioning that in the song? No, definitely not. But none of these characters are moral paragons and Armand is literally one of the worst, which isn’t erased bc he gives a rehearsed apology. I mean I love Armand as a character, but imo he deserved everything he got from everyone this episode.

Seb

there was so much for me to focus on this episode what with the whole disturbing regina/claudia situation AND MY DEVIL’S MINION SHINING THROUGH AT LAST that i completely forgot about the shooting by the time the episode was over 😭 imagine my joy when i finally started engaging in the fandom after finishing season 2 and discovered devil’s minion was ACTUALLY a thing in the books and i wasn’t just delusional with my shipping

Ana

We are all so excited for Devil's Minion arc!! Loustat absence is making me crazy but at least I have this maker-fledging old men yaoi meal to satisfy the cravings for an actual good pairing. This season is seriously so good and the Armand diss track really is up there with songs like Why Do I Have To Feel and Biggest Fan. The songs just get better and better in my opinion!
